Date:1/6/2009

BOSTON, Jan. 6 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The International Health, Racquet and Sportsclub Association (IHRSA) announced today its call to action for anyone looking to live a happier, healthier, longer life - invest in yourself; join a health club.

"Exercise is one of the best medicines we have to help keep us healthy and living longer," says Joe Moore, President and CEO of IHRSA. "During times of stress and financial uncertainty, staying healthy is of the utmost importance. In our current economy, everyone desires a high return on his or her carefully planned investment. Such a return is achievable if you invest in yourself and your health this year, and exercise at a health club. You will reap the rewards of good health, happiness both year-long, and throughout your life."

IHRSA offers the following Ten Reasons To Join A Health Club In 2009:

1. Heal Your Mind and Body:
-- Exercise can aid in the rehabilitation of illnesses and chronic
disease, and improve your muscle strength, cardiovascular health,
reduce stress, and help ease the effects of depression and other
diseases.

2. Practice Prevention:
-- Exercise is a form of preventative medicine that research has
proven can lower the risk of many chronic diseases, improve
overall health and help stave off the effects of aging, arthritis,
cancer, diabetes, heart disease, obesity, and osteoporosis.

3. Improve Your Work Life:
-- Studies have shown that exercise can boost employee morale,
increase productivity, minimize stress, and lead to decreased
absenteeism.
-- On average, frequent exercisers among health-club patrons were
absent from work only 2.11 days per year, compared to 3.06 days
for inactive individuals.
